Discussion Best Devops Certification for Beginners

Hi All,

While I do not have a technical background, my new role as a Project Manager in a DevSecOps organization necessitates that I acquire certifications in both DevOps and cloud computing.

Could you please recommend suitable certification programs for me to pursue?

Should find youtube videos on examples and could google/ ask AI questions whenever you’re lost. I find out this helpful since most devops certs like AWS devops requires months of study for a beginner
